Go Back...Ovum Recordings From USA

In 1994, Wink launched Ovum Recordings with King Britt, telling James Doolittle of the Allentown, Pennsylvania Morning Call, "I'm game for education in any form, and I see [the label] as a form of musical education." Through Ovum, Wink has become a producer for other deejays and has also remixed recordings for electronica stars like Moby.

In 1994 Wink recorded "Liquid Summer" with Britt, a single that became a cult classic on the dance scene. The following year, he recorded three singles that became huge hits in England and launched his career in Europe: "Don't Laugh," "Higher State of Consciousness," and "I'm Ready." Wink began to tour Europe extensively, garnering both a devoted following and continued chart hits. His success in Europe, he believes, stems partly from a larger teen following that exists because they can attend shows at clubs. Another reason is that techno music gets more radio airplay in Europe.

In 1997 Ovum Recordings signed a distribution contract with Ruffhouse/Columbia Records, a sign to some members of the underground music scene that Wink had sold out. Wink maintains, however, that his artistic vision remains intact and that his goal in signing the deal was to get Ovum Recordings' music to the widest possible audience.

Ovum has also seen releases from D'Julz, Steve Lawler, Marc Romboy, Davide Squillace, Loco Dice and Steve Bug.
